The title of Wurl Sotto’s first studio album is a tribute to the true story of Andromeda, the daughter of the king and queen of Ethiopia and not a fair-skinned Greek legend. In this album, Sotto extends a moment of vulnerability, opening up about his life’s revelations on “Heaven”. Moving forward despite the uncertainty with a higher consciousness and courage for his daughter—a focal point for the album and his life. Sotto slows it down with a final plea for love on his track “Love”. The discovery of Andromeda’s true story reveals a presentation of race in legend and art that Wurl Sotto parallels with his own rumination about life “embracing destiny upon its presentation” and dissolving sociopolitical illusion for clarity of his own intention on. Wurl Sotto gives a mantra-like masterpiece with transcendental, soulful beats that empower his message. He pays ode to the enchantment of women on “She Knows”, an interpolation of Masego’s “Tadow”. The bass comes out strong on “Wash Up on the Shore” with soulful elements that give a nostalgic “The Fugees” vibe. He follows with “Soul Food” embracing destiny upon its presentation and dissolving sociopolitical illusion for clarity of his own intention. with a gallant voice to match he states “Im then, I’m now and I’m forever”.
